I DIDNT KNOW THIS..... WOW! Now I feel like a dumb Christian. :-(

Leviticus 15:25
“If a woman has a discharge of blood for many days, not at the time of her menstrual impurity, or if she has a discharge beyond the time of her impurity, all the days of the discharge she shall continue in uncleanness. As in the days of her impurity, she shall be unclean.

Actually,that was in the OT, during the time the Israelites were wandering in the desert. Many laws like that were made, but aren't applicable today. They had to do things like that then,when they were all cramped together in those camps. And, it has nothing to do with "men downgrading women." How ridiculous!

Don't worry, that's one of the bits of the bible that modern christianity considers irrelevant. There are some bits of Leviticus that are irrelevant (the ones that make life hard) and some bits that are still relevant (the bits that allow christians to be judgmental towards others) and the only way to tell the difference is to listen to what religious leaders and conservative talk show hosts tell you to believe.
